Dragonlance Takhisis Revealed In New Dragonlance Preview Art

WotC has shared some new art of Takhisis, Dragonlance’s 5-headed dragon queen.

I like that art!

 

[Micah Sweet]

Yeah, both good pieces. I wouldn't want to meet either of them angry.

 

[Tonguez]

I dunno, her human expression is a bit lacking, is she bored?

War is SO mortal...

She’s bored cause she knows how your PC is gonna die, screaming.

 

[DarkCrisis]

Isn't she trapped in The Abyss, and the whole point of the war (aside from gaining power/land) is to get her out of The Abyss?

Is she now in the New Continuity already out of the Abyss? Which has huge ramifications for... never mind. It doesn't matter.

She can visit in avatar form, like Paladine does. Her True form is confined to the Abyss however, at least for now....

I don’t recall her even showing up in avatar form aside from a lesser smoke thing. I could be mis-remembering

She appears to Kitiara in Dragons of Highlord Skies, to "persuade" her to bring Lord Soth to the cause. I just finished reading this book. I am rereading the Chronicles/Lost Chronicles.

The second piece of art is a good example of that her in cloud form.

I actually really like her expression. She looks like she is pure, uncompromising evil, completely incapable of seeing, understanding, or caring about the plight of any given mortal, even those who serve her.

She’s surrounded by death and suffering she caused and cares not, for she’s spotted you. Prey that she has a use for you.

It looks like smug indifference which I feel is appropriate for her.

 

[GMforPowergamers]

this is pretty awesome art.

 

[Kai Lord]

Absolutely. For those who believe that "the opposite of love is not hate it's apathy" then this current look definitely has that in spades.

I feel I can even see a hint of the wheels turning in her mind in that art, as if she just fixed her gaze on an utterly inconsequential mortal and is processing a near infinite amount of calculations as to whether said subject can have any given use that would justify them living a millisecond longer in her presence.

I'm digging it!

 

[Ralif Redhammer]

Dig it, very much. From 80s hair and eyeshadow to smoky goth eyeliner. Also, clothing that covers her.

 

[LuisCarlos17f]

Why do I am feeling today is a horrible day to be a Power Ranger?

She also appeared to Berem the Everman as the five-headed dragon when he took the jewel, and to Lord Ariakan as the Dark Warrior when they founded the Knights of Takhisis.
